Our hemp cotton scarves are a work of art. Three individual teams worked on this piece to create our vision, and we could not be prouder to offer them to you.
Firstly, one of our older felt partners decided to switch industries and begin weaving fabric, so we gave her an opportunity to weave us some beautiful Nepali hemp and cotton.
Secondly, we had it dyed using materials from the Earth by our master natural dyer .
Wine - coloured using sandalwood powder
Indigo - coloured using the indigo plant leaves
Chocolate - coloured using iron cutch bark
Caramel - coloured using red cutch bark
Light Grey - coloured using myrobalan nuts
Pale Olive - coloured using pomegranate skin
Thirdly, we asked our long term clothing partner to cut, stitch, iron and pack each one for us.
Our beautiful hemp cotton scarves are beautiful, warm, not itchy, non harmful to the body or the planet ... did I say beautiful? Please enjoy.
